This kind of exhibit can be qualified either as evidence or as a testimony aid. Generally, you will want to offer charts and graphs in evidence because that way of organizing the data can qualify as "substantive evidence", and it is valuable to have the organized data before the jury during its deliberations. The "numbers documents" may be qualified by either a lay witness or by an expert witness. This book gives you the methodologies for both.

Physical objects and substances are the "real thing". They are the physical things that are at issue in the case, such as defective parts, pieces of fabric, preserved specimens, and contaminated substances. They can be highly effective exhibits, so the establishing the foundation and preparing to defend against objections needs to be done carefully. Avoid common mistakes in laying an adequate foundation and prepare to defend against objections.

As a category of exhibits, replications are methods for recreating the "real thing". Unlike the recordings of the "real thing", like photographs, which show the real thing as it exists in real life, replications start from scratch and recreate or build a "copy" of the real thing. For example, animations are produced using very sophisticated computer software that can combine many forms of data with color and perspective to create a very lifelike reconstruction.

This book covers important general requirements for the use of exhibits in pretrial motions. For example, summary judgment motions often have exhibits attached that support substantive arguments about issues in the case.

Text document exhibits are subject to the largest number of specialized evidentiary rules. The easiest way to deal with these rules is to consider first the general category into which the exhibit falls: It is either: an original, an exact duplicate with no markings that are not on the original, a "nonconforming" copy that has some markings that are not on the original, a summary of voluminous documents, or an email or other digital file.

You can get almost any exhibit admitted in evidence by following a few straight forward guidelines that are explained here. The easiest way to explain how to qualify exhibits is to use excerpts from transcripts - the actual questions asked and answers given - in a proceeding in which an exhibit similar to yours was put into evidence successfully. Each point in this guidance is explained this way. By using these examples, you have the structure for your deposition or trial notes.

On November 22, 1962, President John F. Kennedy was murdered in front of hundreds of onlookers. For 50 years, the events of that day have been the subject of heated debate. The commission tasked with investigating the assassination published its findings the following year - Oswald had acted alone - but the report did little to quell conspiracy theorists.

In evidentiary terms, the next best thing to seeing the object or the scene itself, or hearing a witness who was at the scene is a recording of some kind that accurately reproduces the "real thing". The authenticity or trustworthiness of many of these exhibits must be established under Federal Rule 901(b)(9) or the state equivalent that applies to processes or systems. The output from equipment can be qualified by testimony that the process or system produces an accurate result.
